	A Web Map Service, in short WMS, is an [https://www.ogc.org/ OGC] standard which publishes geospatial image data. A WMS often serves its data in multiple layers. A WMS layer generally exists of images of a map and does not serve features and attributes directly. One of the advantages of a WMS is that the data is accessible on the internet and that the images are always tied to a geographical location.
